CaseTestify vs LiveLitigation

CaseTestify is a web platform for virtual and hybrid legal proceedings. It combines video conferencing, exhibit handling, and cloud storage for deposition assets in one proceeding. Participants can upload, preview, share, stamp, and annotate PDF, PNG, JPG, DOCX, XLSX, and PPTX exhibits. Private previews and sharing controls help manage exhibit visibility. CaseViewNet integration provides access to the court reporter’s realtime transcript, including search. ViewScript, using Stenograph’s Phoenix speech recognition technology, lets attorneys review testimony text and audio while proceedings continue. Participant audio can be routed to MAXScribe through a virtual cable, without third-party audio-capture middleware. Stenograph says video, audio, exhibits, and other data receive end-to-end encryption, and that recordings and MAXScribe integration data are not used to improve its speech engine or AI. Proceedings include four unrecordable sidebar rooms. Phone dial-in disables browser microphone and speakers. View Only Mode provides shared exhibits and ViewScript access. Guests may join by link but need an account to upload or share exhibits. Pricing is available on request.

LiveLitigation provides software for remote depositions, trials, mediations, and arbitrations, with tools for transcripts, video, and electronic exhibits. Realtime streams a court reporter's transcript to multiple attorneys as testimony is spoken, with search, highlights, and notes. Local Realtime sends transcripts over a private network without internet and includes a pre-configured wireless router with the subscription. The browser-based eSuite combines video conferencing, transcript streaming, and electronic exhibits without installation. Participants can annotate exhibits together, apply exhibit stamps, and submit them for the record while originals remain untouched. Other eSuite tools include team chat, VoIP or teleconferencing bridges, screen sharing, breakout rooms, witness recording, and AI transcript summaries. Sessions use 256-bit TLS encryption and unique attendee codes. eSuite works in modern desktop and mobile browsers; Realtime also has apps for Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android. Local Only costs $399 a year, and Local + Remote costs $699 a year. LiveLitigation advertises 24/7 emergency support. Uploaded files may be temporary, are not provided with permanent archival storage, and may be deleted after as little as 48 hours.
